  Let's have a black celebration
  Black Celebration
  Tonight
  To celebrate the fact
  That we've seen the back
  Of another black day
  I look to you
  How you carry on
  When all hope is gone
  Can't you see
  Your optimistic eyes
  Seem like paradise
  To someone like me
  I want to take you in my arms
  Forgetting all I couldn't do today
 
 -Black Celebration by Depeche Mode

Great words. Not one of my top bands, but I like the lyrics.

Any Triskaidekaphobics lurking out there?
The early bird may get the worm, but it's the second mouse that gets the cheese.
